Racism
Merriam-Webster
Dictionary defines racism as the poor treatment of or violence against other
people because of their race.
Racism
is wrong, hating other people for their skin color is wrong and it will never
be justifiable. You can be white or be a man of color but deep inside we are
all the same. We breathe the same air and the same color of blood flows through
our veins. Why do we even class ourselves according to our skin color when we
all die and rot someday?
I
once experienced racism, it was when I wasn’t entertained in a souvenir shop
because there were a lot of Caucasian tourists even though I came first. It hurt
me because it showed my inferiority complex as a dark-skinned Filipino. We
shouldn’t let anybody treat us differently based on our skin color. You don't
fight racism with racism, the best way to fight racism is with solidarity.
Racism
is something we can abolish if we help each other to educate why it is immoral.
We can teach the future generation about racism so that they can learn to
accept differences and treat everyone as equal.
